Wash. lawmaker: Bars should allow dogs

What is it with dog lovers this week. First there was the guy that decided it was a good idea to make $2 beers for dogs that like to drink out of the toilet and now this moron is rambling on about how dogs should be allowed to get into bars. I've heard a dog is a man's best friend, but when he becomes your true drinking buddy you have some serious people problems.

OLYMPIA, Wash. - If dog-loving lawmakers prevail, Fido could soon be sidling up to bar stools around Washington state.

Soggy dogs waiting outside a downtown Olympia pub inspired state Sen. Ken Jacobsen to propose a way to get them in from the cold and rain.

"There's all sorts of places you can bring animals now," said Jacobsen, who doesn't own a dog. "You can take dogs into hotels. My God, some people are carrying dogs in their purses. Why can't we have them in the bars?"
